Upgrading to Fedora 38: more comments
My recent posts were about 'just in case' precautions before a system
upgrade. I now appear to have a working upgraded system. It wasn't
trouble-free and I didn't use the live workstation download.
The system uses the rpmfusion nvidia 470xx video drivers, which build
modules locally via akmods. Booting the F38 system with the
kernel-6.5.6-200.fc38 did not complete, but kernel-6.5.6-100.fc37 seemed
fine.
Eventually, running the F37 kernel, I "sudo dnf reinstall"ed all the
rpmfusion 470xx packages *and* the kernel*6.5.6-200.fc38 packages and
waited for the jobs to complete. Booting to F38 seems ok now. The
problems were similar to, but worse than, those seen in earlier
upgrades. There's a related bugzilla.
